What were you trying to do that didn't work?
Install RHEL 9.5
Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:
Installer image RHEL-9.5.0-20240813.2-x86_64-dvd1
How reproducible:
100% of the time on my machine. Of course, there's probably some other factor here causing this. I should note: This machine also has a Fedora (I believe Fedora 40?) install on it, which has been continuously updated since Fedora 26
Steps to reproduce
- Start the installer on a machine with a pre-existing volume group already present
- Try to add a custom partition config (I have been using / XFS 20GiB, /home XFS 20GiB, /boot XFS 20GiB, swap 20GiB, /boot/efi 512MiB. None of the partitions should be shared with the other volume group or install that is using said volume group
- Go through the rest of the installer
Expected results
The installer should succeed and partition my system
Actual results
It fails and says that it cannot find the other volume group, e.g. the volume group you aren't using for the install.
Of course - I get the strong feeling this doesn't just reproduce on a machine by default and that there's likely something special about my machine's partitioning config that's triggering this. I'm not sure what it would be though, as the only thing worth noting is the other volume group and the custom partitioning. I've included the generated bug report from the installer, which will probably give you much more useful information
